Solar radiation bombards the house’s roof structure
throughout the day. The roof functions as a “solar collector.”Solar radiation reaches the attic
through a process called “conduction.”The attic functions as a storage and heat transfer area. The
PCS1 is physically located inside the attic and then transfers this solar radiation from the attic air
into the swimming pool’s water through a process called “forced air convection.”
Is achieved with the optional LX220 control. When the
attic is eight degrees hotter than the pool and the pool needs heat, the LX220 automatically routes
water up to the PCS1 and turns it on. It can even synchronize the pool’s pump by turning it on at
the same time.
automatically. The pool owner simply sets the desired thermostat setting on the LX220.
Flowreversal™ can substantially reduce the pool’s heat demand by allowing the heat to rise from
the main drain. Flowreversal™ is a trademark of Mark Urban, Tustin, California. A pool blanket
can be used when the pool is not in use thereby minimizing heat losses caused by evaporation
(60%). Specifications are subject to change without notice.
